Lennar Reviews

Holes and divets were found all over the house in the door frames, flooring ,and baseboards. These were pointed out during our first walk thru andmost were not fixed by the final walk thru. Paint drips were found all over the house.. on floors, walls, and doors. This was not corrected. Wood floor is just planks about an inch thick. Shower heads were cheap looking and there were no towel bars, hooks, or toilet paper holders installed in any bathrooms. Master bath shower and second bathroom should have had decorative tile accent; it did not. We were told they ran out. Very disappointed especially when on our final walk thru a Lennar representative that was present told us that these imperfections should be expected in a new house. For the money we paid for our new home we certainly didn't get our moneys worth considering how much we need to spend to correct all of the imperfections and missing upgrades. ... More

First walk-through inside and secund not finished, dishwasher sinse November 30 not install, is January 17, front door entrance no weather strip doesn't lock correctly, bedrooms doors unlevel and 20 more issues. Please come en see.

I would advise them to make sure issues were completed prior to signing on the dotted line. This is my third Lennar home and worst customer service experience thus far. Overall workmanship in house is good. Service after the sale and attention to needs has ruined this experience for me.

It’s all peaches and cream during the initial buying process. You get the sales pitch. You view the model homes. They are meticulous from ceiling to floor. You choose your home. The build begins. 5 months later your new home is ready to view for the first time. The New Home Orientation begins. The excitement builds. You arrive to see your driveway ripped up. Roof unfinished. Nothing mechanical working in the home. A/C. Hot water. Thermostat missing. 100 degrees inside. I could go on but it’s been exhausting reliving that day. Lennar blew it on making a great first impression. It’s been over 2 months and there’s still deficiencies waiting to get addressed. Lennar….do it right the first time…would be a building philosophy to adhere to. I thought my issues were a one of however mine are just added to the pile as many other residents have the same or worse. We’re trying hard to keep calm, carry on and be positive. Life’s too short to worry. Lennar don’t give a darn once they have your cash. I’ve sent 2 other reviews to Lennar as glowing as this one. I’ve yet to hear from anyone from that Company. ... More

The house finishes and detailing are beyond mediocre. Then the response is slow and disorganized. It becomes a full time for the buyers to get the support to fix the issues we have.

We are very disappointed in the quality of workmanship and the quality of materials and appliances used. We moved in six weeks ago and have had dozens of issues with defective appliances, broken items, missing mirrors, cabinets & other items. The response time has been very bad and we feel like we have been forgotten

I was so excited to buy a Lennar home! The process started out alright, but slowly went down-hill. The communication from the salesperson was lacking. The lady in the title office was rude. Then when I had my so called”walk-through” everything got worse. My house was not completed and the work that was done-especially in some areas was so shoddy. Very poor workmanship throughout the home. I’ve been in this “construction zone” for almost two months-Lennar is very slow at trying to make things right. They have fixed/finished some things, but now it feels like I’m being ignored. Even sending emails to company presidents falls on deaf ears. So very sad. This is supposed to be my last home-I’m retired and I can’t enjoy my home because of the poor quality of work that Lennar did and continues to do. Please don’t buy a home from Lennar-the stress is not worth it. ... More

What would I like other homebuyers to know about our experience... remove any emotion for the initial decision-making process and talk to the people that currently live in the development that you are looking at. If we would have done that, we probably would not have purchased the house that we did. Multiple people in our community have experienced or are experiencing what we are going through with the lack of workmanship, pride in their product, and responsiveness to issues. This was evident with the lack of communication and responsiveness through the building process, not having corrected any of the issues identified before closing, and lack of follow up after submitting repair tickets. ...

Very shoddy workmanship. Many problems. No response

Overall, the building experience was very unprofessional and done with poor quality. There were several damages on the bathtub, refrigerator, dirt that was not cleaned, almost all kitchen cabinet doors were damaged and poorly repainted. There had to be constant pressure on them for it to be done correctly. Poor craftsmanship was present. They pushed that they be paid even when the unit was not ready.

The process of picking out and paying for the home was simple enough however the contact for using lennar mortgage and getting the unfinished work completed has been another story. Lennar pushes incentives to close quicker but did not use them, I ask to buy down the rate but all they did was 1/8 point leaving over $10k of incentive unused. The other item pushing the close was that the property was unfinished and I have yet to hear back on when it will be completed. Lennar needs to have better customer service!

The most horrible experience, I have purchased many new homes this by far was the worst.

Workmanship in every aspect poor quality. Poor response to the issues of the house before closing and after. Damage appliances were place in the house which Lennar has not taken care of. Exterior damage to appliances Frigidaire will not cover under the warranty

Do not close on your home until everything on your punch list is completed. Hire a home inspector. We have had roof leaks, electrical issues with entire rooms, cabinets not completed (we are looking at months before this is done). We have entire doors that needed rehung, tile needed to be replaced and properly installed. We've had one of our bathrooms plumbing completely installed incorrectly. (COLD was HOT and HOT was COLD). When friends and family ask me about Lennar homes, I stir them away. I've bought several homes and never had these many issues with a new home. I bought a 20-year-old home that did not have issues like this. Do not let them tell you when they are selling you the home that it's just like the model. Ours is missing light fixtures, and the lanai was not screened in just to name a few. When I asked our sales representative, they stated they never told us that it was going to be just like the model, and they work for Lennar and not us. I've talked to a few other neighbors with same issues. I've read many other reviews and now know I'm not the only one having issues like this. It's disgusting behavior. ... More

The whole process with securing the loan and financing with Lennar was great and seamless. Once you get your keys and sign off on issues in your home you think will be fixed you hear nothing back. It’s like once Lennar got their money I was on my own. I put in three customer care requests and was “supposed to hear back in a week”. Well that was December 4th and today is January 10th. I have not received one phone call as to when these issues will be fixed. I even texted the rep who I did my customer care appointment with and I have heard nothing back. Be mindful, when you buy a Lennar home after the transaction is completed you are on your own. Luckily I haven’t had issues like my neighbors have (Heater not working, water heater issues, plumbing issues). Still it’s incredibly frustrating I feel like once Lennar got their money they don’t care anymore. ... More

Let me start off by saying that this is a wonderful community and I’m very happy that I moved here despite the construction issues. The other residents make it the wonderful community. My home sat with no progress being done for much of 2022. It wasn’t until the final month that they hurriedly slapped it together. It shows! I am a disabled veteran and have felt totally overwhelmed with all that needs to be done but I will make sure that Lennar fixes all of the issues with my home. As I type this, tiles are being replaced in my living room. The place basically needs to be repainted, I still need beat up doors replaced And other doors repaired. ... More

We just purchased and moved in the end of November. We had things that we were told that they would come back right away to fix or finish and that still hasn't happened. For what we paid for the house, you would think that we would get better customer service and timely repairs. The fact that we were promised grass before we moved in and it didn't happen, very unfortunate. Everyone that I have spoken with has said they can't believe that gutters aren't a part of the home building package, which again is just sad. We are happy to be in our house but just wish that the things would just get done. ... More

Waste of money pay too dollars and the house is built with the cheapest materials. Sales people have no interest after ur contract is signed don’t even make sure you have everything that is supposed to come with your home. Just horrible.

I have many outstanding items on my punch list--such as my deadbolts don't work. a cabinet door is damaged, poor shelving has left holes in the wall and the subs they want to send out only work Monday-Friday from 8-4 and are totally impossible to book. It is a nightmare. I took the day off work and the folks came to fix the deadbolts and they brought the wrong equipment-- meaning I have take another day off work with no consideration of my time and danger in living in a house with inoperable dead bolts. Do not sign the closing papers until everything is fixed. They DO NOT uphold their warranty. ... More

Very disappointed with Lennar. Everything in the house looks like low quality. The walls are paper thin. You can hear everything. Doors are extremely light weight. Only one internet port in the whole house. Sprinklers don’t work from day 1. When asked was told its not covered under warranty.

I would not recommend. Workmanship is poor quality, finding more and more issues as we get more settled- poor painting, lots of seal and caulk issues, cabinet colors don’t match, mouse infestation, the list goes on and on. Not all issues are covered which makes it more frustrating. Major issues with hot water, recently fixed after enormous gas bill. Working with Jonathan now on warranty items and he has been great thus far! Lennar should spend a bit more time in the details of the home prior to close and move-in. The walk through is very difficult as they are showing you all of the amenities and doing the walk through at the same time. Sharon was our walkthrough rep and she was good at making excuses for things that were clearly broken and needing a fix- example- gentleman was power washing our pack porch and a flood of water came under the door- I asked if that would be fixed and she attempted to convince me if was normal from water pressure and would not put it in the list for repair. During the 2nd walk through, construction manager- Juan- confirmed it did require weather stripping, after I asked about it. Doing the right thing the first is key in customer service and business especially on a $460K plus purchase! Right now, wouldn’t recommend to a friend and wouldn’t buy again with Lennar. ... More

We came home from work to find our ceiling was leaking and caving in over our master bathroom. The home is a month old. We feel like we were tricked and are very disheartened by this whole experience. Our life savings is in this home and now we are staring at a giant hole in our ceiling and are displaced from our master bedroom for close to a month, waiting for the repairs to be completed. Also, the microwave is short circuting the whole wall every time we use it and the refrigerator that came with the home had a leak which took a month to get fixed. I would not recommend a Lennar home to anyone at this point. Our DR Horton home we bought brand new never had a single issue the whole 5 years we lived there. This home seems to be falling apart weeks to moving in. ... More

From day one, you're on your own! NHCs are worthless. Male construction manager won't talk to you and ignores emails. Responsiveness is slim to none. Too many mistakes were made, and when you point them out, they get mad and ignore you even more. The only time you hear from Lennar is when they want money. Otherwise, you remain in limbo for the duration of construction. The most unfriendly builder (except for one concierge) in NV, and I've dealt with several over the last 30+ years. If not for the floor plan and location, I would have cancelled my contract and walked away. If you don't care about communication or workmanship, and plan to stay silent the entire time, they you'll be fine. If not, just know that you'll have to be your advocate by keeping an eye on things on a weekly basis, especially towards the end. And know that there are NO options. The entire experience was extremely frustrating and disheartening, especially for the price that you pay...and never know what's going on. ... More

The handover to my new home was a horrible experience. The puchout list and other outstanding issues were not met. I'm very disappointed at the lennar team.

Horrible responsiveness from my sales, lennar mortgage & customer care.
